Purple and White baby!!!

Anyone who has suffered through the last couple of years with the Toronto Raptors has shared in my misery. While things have been turned up in a big way over the last 6 months, they were still the 5th worst team in the league this year, with the possibilty for some improvement next year. Chris Bosh makes the games worth watching, as well as solid improvement from Charlie Villanueva.

Personally, all the hype about Bryan Colangelo is nothing but until I see him do something… BUT NOW HE’LL HAVE SOMETHING TO WORK WITH! God bless lady luck for shining her pretty face on Toronto this year and granting us the #1 lottery pick for the upcoming draft, when we should have gotten the #5 pick in the draft. We will see if Mr. Colangelo trades this pick – since it is a pretty homogeneous field, or if he picks up a big man.

And, for those who don’t know...yes, this is a big deal.
Yippooo!!!!!
